The Spindrift Knight, Eula, had come specifically to observe the situation after learning that Durin's heart would revive in the future.
Later, she heard that the Abyss Order was mobilizing troops against Mondstadt. She had intended to rush back, but then discovered that Su Xuan had already announced the outcome of the Abyss Order's expedition.
So, she simply decided to stay on Dragonspine for the time being.
"He really has a lot of free time, actually coming all the way from Stormterror's Lair to Dragonspine just for a Ruin Grader."
"What does he want to do? Does he want to assemble a Ruin army?"
Eula kept muttering to herself.
But at this moment, she felt particularly envious of Su Xuan's freedom.
Not only that, even though Su Xuan was just a Traveler from outside this world, everyone seemed to respect him greatly.
Even Lord Barbatos would personally offer him gifts to show his gratitude and respect.
Unlike her, a Citizen of Mondstadt, who was treated like a rat in the street, shunned by everyone.
"Is this the unique charm of a strong person?" Eula murmured to herself.
As soon as she thought of Su Xuan's imminent arrival on Dragonspine, Eula's mind recalled the locations of the Ruin Graders.
"You can occasionally see traces of Ruin Graders in the snowy mountains."
"Should I go look for him? Maybe I'll run into him."
As soon as the thought arose, Eula's body seemed to move uncontrollably. She actively got up, left her tent, and ran towards where the Ruin Graders might appear.
Finally, as dusk gradually fell, Eula discovered a Ruin Grader that appeared to be patrolling.
However, the moment she spotted it, the Ruin Grader's steel-like body seemed to be subjected to a terrifying pull, and it flew directly into the sky.
Eula, in shock, looked up. A figure enveloped in a halo of light stood in the sky.
After Su Xuan made contact with the Ruin Grader for a moment, he exerted a slight force with his palm.
The Ruin Grader, pulled into the sky, couldn't withstand the immense pressure. With bursts of sparks, it was forcibly twisted into a ball of scrap metal.
"Ugh!" Eula, witnessing this scene firsthand, couldn't help but retreat repeatedly in fright. Her foot slipped, and she landed on her bottom with a "thud."
This was Psychokinesis.
Previously, observing Su Xuan use Psychokinesis through a screen, she only felt the visuals were incredibly shocking.
Witnessing the use of Psychokinesis in person, however, filled Eula's heart with an uncontainable fear.
She couldn't imagine how terrifying it would be if such power were used on a person.
Would they splatter into a ball of flesh?
The thought of such a scene made Eula, who naturally loved the cold, shiver uncontrollably.
If she had known she would see such a terrifying sight, she wouldn't have come to join the fun.
Is it too late to regret it now?
When she saw Su Xuan had already landed in front of her, Eula knew it was probably too late to escape now.
The wind howled through Dragonspine. Su Xuan silently watched Eula, who was sitting on the ground. Eula didn't dare to move, only able to glance away.
The scene seemed to fall into an awkward silence.
Suddenly, Eula felt her consciousness tremble, and the Diary Copy automatically popped out.
— Look what I found on Dragonspine.
— A wild Spindrift Knight, Eula Lawrence.
— Her appearance in the snowy mountains is not surprising at all.
— Eula, who naturally loves the cold, particularly enjoys the icy lakes of the snowy mountains and occasionally comes here to bathe.
— But the current situation has me confused.
— I don't understand why a proud Knight like her would be sitting on the ground in such a comical pose right now.
— Should I remind her or not?
The Ladies immediately became interested.
A proud Knight sitting on the ground in a very comical pose.
What kind of pose was it?
Furina, with an air of enjoying the show, was in high spirits, quietly waiting for the photos to be transmitted.
But she waited for a long time and nothing followed.
"That's it?" Furina blinked blankly: "What's next? Where are the photos of the Knight in the comical pose that I wanted?"
"Why has this person learned to keep us in suspense now?"
Dragonspine.
Eula then realized that because she had slipped, her legs were spread a bit too wide, directly facing Su in an 'open-door' manner.
This pose could only be described as utterly mortifying.
"You…" Eula quickly got up, shyly turning her back immediately, not daring to face Su in front of her.
However, Su Xuan behind her didn't speak to her directly.
Instead, he silently updated his diary behind her back.
— I finally understand.
— Eula Lawrence, as the one on whom the Lawrence family placed high hopes, bearing the task of revitalizing the family.
— She underwent rigorous noble dogma education from a young age.
— But in Eula's heart, she didn't want to be used as a tool for the family's revival.
— Thus, in the process of resisting oppression, she became extremely contradictory.
— In crowded places, Eula always maintained elegance and pride, but on the deserted Dragonspine, she would sit casually on the ground in a comical pose.
— To release the suppression in her heart.
Amber, having just reported the situation of the Hilichurl tribes outside Mondstadt (their retreat) to Jean, suddenly noticed Su Xuan's diary was recording Eula.
She stared in surprise.
"Eula, she…"
As Eula's close friend, Amber naturally knew that Eula was a person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
Although she always spoke in a sharp manner, her heart was kind and passionate.
She just hadn't expected that Eula had this side, in a place even her close friend didn't know about?
It truly startled the Outrider.
As an excellent Outrider, she hadn't truly seen through her best friend's heart; that was truly unacceptable.
Dragonspine.
Eula was dumbfounded. She quickly turned around and protested to Su Xuan: "You… you shouldn't write nonsense…"
"Don't you know that the contents of your diary can be seen by others?"
"They'll get the wrong idea."
"You…"
Seeing Su Xuan acting like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, Eula was so angry that she put her hands on her hips and turned her head away: "I'll remember this grudge."
[Eula Lawrence's catchphrase: I'll remember this grudge.]
[As for why she always uses this phrase as her catchphrase.]
[The main reason is that as a descendant of Lawrence, who oppressed the Citizens of Mondstadt in the old days, Eula is deeply disliked by the Citizens of Mondstadt.]
[They often point fingers at her.]
[Eventually, Eula couldn't stand such treatment and would use "I'll remember this grudge" to scare the Citizens of Mondstadt who were pointing fingers at her.]
[She hoped that in this way she could reduce the verbal violence others inflicted on her.]
[Actually... it was completely useless...]
[Even if she sacrificed so much for Mondstadt, even with this feigned intimidation, the Citizens of Mondstadt still treated her the same way.]
[Prejudice in people's hearts is like a great mountain.]
[The most direct way to cross this mountain is to fight fire with fire.]
[If you verbally abuse me, I'll cut off your mouth. Just cut off a few, and no one will dare to verbally abuse you again.]
[Just like me at this very moment.]
[Eula just threatened me, and I've decided to retaliate.]
Eula: "?"
Under Eula's horrified gaze, Su Xuan waved his large hand, and countless Ruin Graders appeared out of thin air on the empty ground behind him, standing in rows.
[A one-man army.jpg]
[Spindrift Knight, you will pay the "price" for your intimidation.]
Eula: "?"
The Spindrift Knight's mental state exploded.
Su Xuan clearly knew everything, yet he started a war with her without a word.
She had the right to suspect that the person in front of her was just looking for an excuse to kill her.
